80% were satisfied with the portable design, while 20% weren't
The piano is suitable for any small space due to its form factor.
The piano has a regular-sized keyboard but is still nice and compact.
The package was big and heavy, even for the UPS driver, indicating that the piano may not be easy to carry from one place to another.

With a good pair of headphones, the piano sound is 11/10.

82% appreciated the connectivity options, though 18% wished more
The piano comes with a computer App that can be plugged in using USB.
The piano has limited connectivity options and is difficult to set up. Yamaha should have provided the adapter for free as it is sold at a higher price in the US compared to the Asian market. Additionally, an extra 6.35mm earphone adapter is required for connecting earphones/headphones to this piano.
81% found the pedal functionality useful, but 19% thought it was sensitive
The sound, keyboard, foot pedals and potential accompaniments of various other musical instruments are outstanding.
The weighted keys feel like those of my baby grand and are very responsive.
After a month, my pedal started squeaking and I contacted customer support. They are sending a new pedal mechanism, but it's back ordered and will take 3-4 months to arrive.
